They certainly do.

Rather, I suspect your installation has "network tests enabled" but
the network tests are failing, possibly because of unmet installation
prerequisites.

You could reinstall and during the installation specify that you want
network tests off, but I think you'll be better off by fixing your
installation so the network tests work.
